Tuesday 21st, Workout of the Day

Fitness/Beginners:

Warm up:
Stretch, run/jog 200 meters
25 jumping jacks


Metcon:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Push-ups
Sit-ups

note- If push-ups are easy for you, weight your back down or do dynamic or plyometric push-ups. These will be a lot harder for you. The second link offers many different variations if you want to challenge yourself.  If you're one still having trouble with push-ups, no worries, use knees for assistance.  Your strength will come.

I want this to be heavy. No need to walk a half mile, just heavy enough to make your carry rough.  Get outside and show off your dedication. Take advantage of this amazing weather.
